@Shane:  Where did you get the information on M3?  I thought the government stopped publishing that information?

There are several places, like ShadowStats, that calculate their own.

This is what really bothers me the most about statists I think.  You support socialistic ponzi schemes that allow you to get free stuff and dump the bill onto your children and grandchildren, effectively selling them into slavery and yet you bitch and moan about how how evil and exploitative it is when Wall Street gets a bailout on your dime.

For all the people talking about Mitt and Obama's positions as opposed to actions.

That was inspired by RaymondDundas' quote on "new" atheists, I see.

A post I did on Enthalpay's response vid to Shane since he'll probably delete it.

"I've never claimed to be the smartest person in the world, in fact I have repeatedly stated that I'm only a layman in the matters I speak of.

I just LOOK like the smartest person in the world when compared to statist infants who shit in bags and try and pass it off as logic. ^^"

these people are absolute sissies alright: why can't they be as manly as us Arabs?

I mean, when I was in school, we had one guy get away with threatening to hang us all by our testicles if we didn't remember a chemical reaction in the next week's oral exam; nobody failed the oral--or even made less than 100% (yes, he had the hooks). The same guy invented the dread "0 cubed" (Arabic: sifr tak'eeb): 0 in the written exam, therefore 0 in the shafawi (oral exam), 0 in participation, for a grand total of 0 out of 20 every 5 weeks. (yes, you read that right: he gave you a 0 in the other two section on making a zero on the exam; sometimes, he didn't even wait on that--lazy students were often just given it).

of course, their fame stems from the fact that these were the exceptions to the rule: most teachers were cool, but strict too: they expected you to do your work: don't, and you get a zero (though no testicle hanging).

The more you know!  Hm..I don't usually think "manly" when thinking about arabs, but then foreign (or even local) cultures aren't really my bag.
Reminds me of a bit from Michael Rosen where he tells that children weren't allowed to breath in his primary school class.  Where the weak ones keeled over and died.

Reminds me of a Rodney Dangerfield quote: "My school was so tough, when they told one kid to demonstrate the law of gravity, he threw the teacher out the window!"
